Review Summary

Review Summary

SigmaOS is what comes from YC backing a browser. It's one of the actually interesting new entrants in the market, although they have far less funding than Arc Browser and many of their features are just copies of what Arc is doing (and charging for them), whereas Arc is giving them for free.

What Is SigmaOS?

What Is SigmaOS?

SigmaOS is a super interesting primary browser contender in the space. In the myriad of productivity-focused browsers out there.

SigmaOS tried to re-think how a browser layout should be, and build in layers of productivity along the way (not too dissimilar to that of Arc).

The thing is, Sigma has quite minimal funding, and in the browser space, you're competing with companies that have billions of dollars to throw at improving the browser (Google Chrome, Edge, Safari), so when comparing it to those, it's tough to see how they'll manage to compete.

That said, even just comparing SigmaOS to that of Arc, Arc has raised over $100M to take on this incredibly competitive space, whereas SigmaOS is trying to fight having raised likely less than $2M. It's also tough to understand if people are actually willing to pay for a browser, and at $20/mo on the paid tiers for SigmaOS, it just feels like Arc is the more likely winner here.

SigmaOS does make some pretty different opinionated design decisions though, it's worth a shot checking out if you want to try something fresh and new, though not sure we'd bet on it ultimately taking up any meaningful browser marketshare.
